I never knew what I was missing
Silver_Fox 05.06.2020
I always liked the old school tones and technology when it came to guitars. Always looked up and admired artists with those vintage Les Pauls around their neck. That great rock tone from a Marshall with a Gibson.

Then came the day I bought an ESP LTD ec-1001T-CTM.
It had the famous 81/60 EMG's in it. I wanted this guitar for diversity in my sound and collection. The sound was great but it lacked dynamics and a bit of personality, the sound was just a bit too sterile.

I researched and pondered about buying the HetSet.
When I got them delivered and put them in my guitar it was like wow. What the 81/60 was missing the HetSet more then delivered.

Tone can be raw and hard, but can also be warm and clean.
You can roll back the volume and clean them almost up entirely even when being on the lead channel of the amp.

Now this guitar and sound has become my favourite and I barely touch my gibson les paul anymore...

Love them

I put them in my Epiphone Explorer guitar and they sound awesome.
The conversion from passive to active was really easy. The inclued instructions were very clear. I love the sound!

Great pickups.

Great pickups. Not only because it's a JH signature, but these pickups are great! I swapped the 60/81 with the JH.
The neck pickup is awesome and gives you a little more pleasure for clean parts in my opinion and the lead is a beast! Very happy

Yeyeeeaaahhhhhhhh!!!!
Wodos 20.05.2024
Incredibly well priced pickups for those looking for that core Metallica sound to help with an overall tone. (They even work well for those willing to forsake one M for another ;) )

The cleans on either Neck or Bridge are amazingly crisp and ring fluidly

Could not recommend these enough for those looking for an active voiced set for Thrash/Crunchy Death/Tribute bands

ALSO! Gold! Who doesn't like gold?

A really good active pickup

If you want something more natural sounding than the EMG 81, and something sweeter than the EMG 60, this is where you go to.

As for the looks, the gold plating is of a high quality, and a nice darker shade of gold
